Coconut Flour Biscuit Recipe

Want to make biscuits to douse in gravy for breakfast, or maybe even a grain-free strawberry shortcake? Try these fluffy coconut flour biscuits!

These Paleo-friendly coconut flour biscuits are a foolproof recipe you’re going to love. The fibrous coconut flour adds fluffiness to the biscuits, while a little bit of arrowroot starch keeps them tender. Egg whites help them to rise, and coconut oil makes them moist.

These biscuits are so much healthier than their wheat-based counterparts. Additionally, they are nut-free thanks to the use of coconut flour. Coconut flour also keeps the carbohydrate count lower and the eggs add protein and nutrition. Coconut oil adds plenty of healthy fats to the equation. Plus, the resulting biscuits are not only delicious, but nutritious too!

And speaking of delicious, there are so many awesome ways you can enjoy these coconut flour biscuits! I love them with softened grass-fed butter and perhaps a bit of fruit-sweetened jam, as a snack or with breakfast. But they’re perfect with any roasted meat, soup, or stew. Or you can top them with healthy sausage gravy for a Paleo version of biscuits and gravy. But if you want a simple dessert, top them with whipped coconut cream and sliced fresh-picked strawberries for a grain-free take on strawberry shortcake. Yum!

For best results with this easy recipe, use a nice fine-ground coconut flour that is cream-colored, not bleached white. You could probably substitute tapioca starch for the arrowroot starch. Use high-quality eggs for best health benefits and rising power of the egg whites. Watch the biscuits closely as they bake so they don’t burn!
